The number of patients received at the Illinois Ceateal hospital this month, up to this morning, was 121, with no deaths, and speedy recove- ries.

Rev, Robjent contended that for nearly SCO years the church did not teach the eternal punishment idea; that priesteraft interpreted it asa convenient rod of castigation of the people, a concrete thing that was less troublesome to explain and less diffi cult to understand than the real story of our future hfe as laid down in God's word, He could not bring himself to say that souls were con- demped, without hope, to eternal punishment because of sins commits ted in this life; he could not abandon the belief that there was hope beyond the grave, an expiation for faults, a trial which purified till the soul was lifted toa plane where it was tlt company for angels.

Many Parts of Town Covered With Water This Morning. Drainage on Trimble to Be Repaired, One Cause of Floods on West Broadway Discovered—Street Inspector Utterback Sent Out to Tear Out a Pipe. The city was flooded in many places this morning. Out on West Trimble street the water was from five to ten inches deep in many places, whole blocks being flooded, The wayor and others went out, aad de- cided to make a new survey at once and construct new drainage at once. Work has been deferred from time to time, bui there is no longer apy ex~ cuse for further delay, aud Monday worning the drainage will be entirely reconstructed. Out on Broadway, sometime since, the city constructed under the ‘treet near Twelfth, a large culvert, to carry off the water north of Broadway. The tobacco warehouse men, without consulting the city, went to work and closed the mouth of the culvert and cemented in it an 18-inch pipe. This badly obstructed the drainage and this moraing Mavor Lang order- ed Street Inspector Utterback to go out and des.roy the pipe placed in by the wareliouse owners. He did as ordered, but with a small force of men could not accomplish the work, and this afterncon the entire chaia gang was takeo out to finish the job. It is though: this will relieve the choked coadition of the rain-washed locality to some extent, at Jeast. It is one cause of the flooded condition of that section of town, after a heavy rain. OLDEST CISTERN. It Was This Morning Filled by Overseer of the Chain Gang Cooksey. cated Back of the Old City Court} Room, Now the Engine House. The oldest cistern in Paducah was] this morning filled under the super- vision of overseer of the chain gang, Wes Cooksey. It was under the stable at Central fire station, and was built in 1850, according to Col, Cook sey, who is authority on Paducah in her younger days. The cistern was then located hack ‘of the old city court room and lockup. and Judge Sanders held court near it many atime. The cistern had not been used for mony years, and was deemed too dangerous to remain un- filled, even with a floor over it. GILT EDGE. The Credit of the City Is as Good as the Best. Seyen Syndicates Desire to Bid On Bonds—They Are Apxlous, Mayor Lang last evening received from seven different syndicates ap- plications” to. bid on the proposed bond issue of $100,000, The firms are of New York, Chicago and Cin- cinnati, and are among the best in the country News travels rapidly, as it is only since Monday that the matter came up in the clty council. This proves conclusively that the credit of the city is as good as could be wished, ADAY, SEVTEMBER 30, 1898. POPULAR HERE, Gonduetor Bu the Se O'Brien Goes to ithern Pacific. The Sun several days ago stated that Conductor Bud O’Brien bad ac- cepted a position with the Southern Pacific. He was formerly of the city, and is very pepular here. The Louisville Times yesterday contained a fine half tone cut of him, accompanied by the following : “Capt. O'Brien was until recently conductor on the Illinois Central, and is very popular, He was offered a better position with the Southern Pacific road, and has gone to Tuscon tosecept. He is a thirty-third de: gree Mason, and is quite well known along the line of:the Illinois Central | route in Kentucky. PARDNER,” é pevenitiie Splendid Company at Morton's Monday Night. By special request of numerous theater-goers Manager Terrell has secured a return engagement of Ar- thar C. Aiston’s company presenting “Tennessee's Pardner,’’ which scor- ed's positive artistic and financial success here last season. From the way the critics of the country bave again indorsed this production, the company which will present ‘Ten- nessee's Pardner’’ at Morton’s opera house Monday night is a fine one. POSTOFFICE BANKS. Something New and Very Con- venient Established by Uncle Sam. You Can Now Use the Postoftice as a Savings Bank—Very Valuable, The postoflice department bas ar- ranged to have money orders payable to persons iu the sawe city in which they are issued.

It Attracted a Great Deal Attention on the Streets Today, He Relates His Experience Buy- ing Pies at Camp Hamil~ ton, Lexington, When Col, George Detzel reached the city today, his friends bardly knew him, He wore a peaked white hat,scolloped around the edges, with a small brim left in front, and the unique article was inscribed with the names Of halfa hundred or more members of Co., K, Third Kentucky. He bought two of the hats while gone, and as his derby hat blew out of the ar window just before he reached iueah, he had todon one of the fantastic pieces of headgear be bought at Lexington, Col. Detzel was re the soldiers at Camp [amilton, es- pecially those he knows. He went over with about a dozen of them to buy pies. The old woman who sold them would ly treated by Col, Detzel didn’s want but a dozen, hence he had to pay five cents each and that her standing is second to none in the state. The syndicates that want to bid on the bonds, of course, cannot be given any definite reply until the council acts on the mayor's proposi- tioa, which will probably be at the next meeting, Monday night. THE LADY JUMPED. It Was Quite an Interesting Epi+ sode, Assistance Ren» dered Her, ‘Phere was quite an exciting oveur- renge on North Fourth strect near Central fire station late yesterday afiernoon, A young lady of Ban- dana came to the city with a youth in a buggy. and while here the young man got fall of mean whiskey, and the young lady, at the above named locality, discovered it, and lightly vaulted out of the buggy. ‘The youth got very mad, and attempted to per- suade her to get back, aud failing in this, atarted to jump out and force herin, A stationman or two at this junct- ure, appreciating the young lady's predicament, walked out to give the impertinent young man what he richly deserved, and she had no fur- for them. While the boys were en- joying the treat, up came another squad ef a dozen, aad of course Col, Detzel showed his characteristic hos pitality and bought a pie for each of the pew arrivals, at five cents each, The first detachment had not fins ished when up came a third,and a pie was purchased for each these. The old woman was in ecstavivs) for ner whole stock was going rapidly, and at retail prices, too. A fourth and a fifth delegation arrived in the course of a few moments, and when Col.

NO VOTE IS NEEDED. The People Will Not Haye to Vote on the Bond Question. Opinion of the City At- torney and Mayor, The Council Has the Power to Is- sue Them Without a Submis- sion to the People Law on the Subject, Under the new constitution, how- ever, contributory bonds cannot be issued at all, hence it would appear that the people under the new consti tution do not bave to vo'e on any bond issue. The law seems to be jain, and it is the opinion of the o,ty attorney that the question will not Save to be submitted to the people.

His opinion is based on what law he has thus far found, and while not entirely final, is virtually so. The mayor decided upon looking up the law, that the people would not have to vote the bonds, and sub- mitted the question to Attorney Lightfoot. The law is as follows: See. 23, City Charter: “Subject to the limitations imposed by the con- stitution, and this act, the council shall have the power to contract debts and borrow money, and to is- sue the bonds of the city therefor, and to control the finances and prop- erty of the city. ‘The common coun- cil shall also have the power to issue bonds in renewal of any bonds there | tofore issued and to fund any float. | ing indebtedness of the city lawfully contracted. No bonds of the city| shali be sold below par.’’ The ‘‘limitations’’ referred to, and imposed by the constitution, are that the city cannot assume an indebted- ness exceeding 10 per centum of the total valuation of property.
